Look up HDCP.
Reddit probably beats Facebook but it's getting worse all the time. If you want to use Lemmy you might consider running your own instance. Lemmy as far as I can tell has usable photo uploading. Maybe the new thing you mentioned will be better, but idk anything about it. There is also Threads which is a Facebook thing, right?
On a stovetop you have to soak the beans overnight and then cook them for at least an hour, so energy usage might be higher, idk. OTOH the batch size compensates for a lot.
Or dry beans vs canned beans; does the cost of boiling the beans actually bring the cost up to be equivalent to canned beans?
Nowhere near, at least in a a pressure cooker. An electric pressure cooker uses 1KW when the heater is running, and you cook the beans for about 35 minutes. The heater doesn't run the whole time but even if it did, that's around 0.6 KWH at most. And you would normally do a bigger batch than you'd get in 1 can of beans. I have been wanting to measure the actual power usage sometime.
If you have the time for it I'd say run an independent site. Lemmy is ok for posting photos though.
Try the monthly Who Is Hiring thread on news.ycombinator.com, first business day of each month so you will have to wait a couple weeks for the next one. Here is the last one:

99 Luftballons was the first one that came to mind.
I didn't understand the original post. It seemed like someone whining about a switch to AGPL. But that switch certainly sounds like a good thing to me. I didn't know the old license was Apache but it still seems like a good switch. Redis (with a misstep in between) did something similar.
This almost seems like a leopards ate my face situation. I remember Plex supplanted some other proprietary media server that went evil. I couldn't understand why people burned by the first one switched en masse to another one like it. Once wasn't enough? If you're going to switch at all, go to something that is 100% libre.
You can certainly spin up a VPS with Windows Server on it and figure outhow to do your daily tasks on it. Buyvm.net will let you run an old version at no extra charge on cheap VPS. Other hosts have newer versions that you pay a bit extra for, but it is affordable.
I think I've seen some things like that, but you can never stop them from taking a screen shot, with a camera if necessary.
